No it's not much configurable. The works are scheduled on tasks that are node affine and you can't change that for system_unbound_wq. Only WQ_SYSFS workqueues can be overriden on their no_numa property but even there that's after the boot and most of the usermodehelper load goes on boot. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
